Steph Curry is one of the greatest basketball players all time.
On the Golden State Warriors he’s coached by Steve Kerr, who’s won 5 titles as a player and 4 as head coach of the Warriors.
Kerr is the NBA coach I follow most closely. A fantastic teacher, obviously. And also a vocal defender of human rights.
But in the new documentary, Kerr is not singled out. Yet Steph has nothing but praise for his NCAA Division 1 coach Bob McKillop. The Silver Fox.
McKillop was the only coach to offer Steph a College Scholarship. To Davidson College. A school with only 2000 students.
Smart. Like a fox.
After all, Steph is only 6 ft 2 in (1.88 m) and weighed perhaps 150 pounds when leaving high school.
Stephen Curry: Underrated details Curry’s path to NBA stardom. But is not focused on his 4 championship rings.
The theme is how underrated he has been throughout his career. Many experts quick to count him and the Warriors out. More often than not, the doubters have been proved wrong.
I enjoyed most the parts of the documentary dealing with family. And with his extended family at Davidson.
I’ve been a big fan of Steph Curry for years. As I was with 2x NBA MVP Steve Nash. About the same size — 6 ft 3 in (1.91 m) — and also went out un-recruited out of High School in Canada. Finally Santa Clara coach Dick Davey reached out. Smart.
Lesson to be learned is NOT to count out athletes who do not have the ideal physical attributes for the sport.
